Whenua, Māori Pūrākau of Aotearoa
From sleeping giants to battling mountains, fiery sisters to adventurous trees, dig into Whenua and discover eleven tales of how Aotearoa was formed beneath our feet.
Whenua takes readers back in time with each purakau, exploring the ways in which Aotearoa's land was formed and introducing children to legendary Māori figures and atua.
A beautifully illustrated collection that will delight the whole whānau, from award-winning illustrator Isobel Joy Te Aho-White.
